Set in Biedronki devices with medical equipment belong to Telecareka Medyczna. The website serwisoscihandlowe.pl revealed that the entity has over 600 registered medical facilities. The addresses coincide with the locations of the Biedronka stores.
SiDLY telemedicine bands will be available in the network points of sale, which will make it possible to monitor the conditions of the wearer. In Biedronka, the device will be offered at a discount of 599 PLN, 200 PLN less than the normal price. The monthly subscription fee for network customers has been reduced from PLN 39.90 to PLN 33
– The collaboration with Sidly is a pilot project and within its structure, in selected branches of the network, there are prepared positions that allow you to know the offer and the way the band works, as well as their order – informs the Biedronka press office. – In this way, we are facilitating the creation of the largest and most comprehensive remote assistance system for the elderly, including those who live far from their relatives, which makes permanent hospital care difficult – read further.
The appearance of devices with medical equipment is associated with the creation of an opening for the opening of stores on non-commercial Sundays. Piotr Adamczak, chairman of the NSZZ Solidarność plant committee at Jeronimo Martins Polska, also told Money.pl that the store managers have been tasked with completing the crews for the seventh day of the week
– We have no such projects – says a Biedronka employee, questioned about the opening of shops on Sundays subject to the trade ban. – Legal opinions are unclear as to whether the shop can function as a medical facility on Sundays. “Some lawyers find it legal, others find it illegal,” says our source.
Biedronka wanted to open the shops on Sunday in August. At the time, the pretext was to launch a children’s book rental in select stores. The case became famous in the media, the Minister of Family and Social Policies also intervened, and at the last moment the company withdrew from these plans. Book rentals operate in select Biedronka, but we will not shop on Sundays in them.
